When the coronavirus pandemic hit in March 2020, it shuttered movie theaters around the world which forced many studios to consider alternate release options.

They turned to on-demand video and streaming services such as Amazon Prime Video, Disney+, and Hulu to release the highly-anticipated films. 

Other films kept to traditional releases, making most of their box office revenue from overseas sales. 

Check out the top movies that came out amid the pandemic below:
